Chapter 157: Martial Arts
Ah Brown glanced at the contents of the letter, and there was no expression on his face.
Worried that it was a secret of the Dongyuan Imperial Court, Ah Zi didn't dare to ask more, so he had to stand quietly and watch Ah Brown being sprinkled with a layer of golden handsome side face by the rising sun.
Ah Brown raised his gaze from the letter paper and faced Ah Zi, who was fascinated, he couldn't help but smile and reached out to rub Ah Zi's loose hair at the back of his head, and said, "What do you think, so obsessed?" ”
Ah Zi, who was caught, blushed and was at a loss.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. ”
Ah Brown was not entangled in her embarrassment, and handed a small roll of parchment paper in his hand to Ah Zi.
"It's the news that Bao'er and Ah Zhong have handed over, they have arrived in the Golden Forest, and they are waiting for us to go over at a 'Willow Wind Inn' on the border."
Ah Zi took the parchment that was only half the size of a palm, and the handsome handwriting on it looked like it was from Bao'er's hand, she smiled slightly, remembering the hearty smile on her face - for the first time, the Bao'er in her memory was no longer shrouded in the haze in her heart.
Ah Brown looked at the rising sun that had slowly risen from the eastern horizon: "It's not early, let's continue on our way." You didn't sleep all night last night, try to squint in the carriage for a while, and rest a little, or you won't have a chance to meet them before you get to them, and the people will be exhausted first. ”
Ah Zi smiled and blinked at Ah Brown: "Didn't you also sleep all night?" ”
As soon as the words fell, he was picked up by Ah Brown and sent to the carriage like a kitten.
She giggled and got into the car and sat alone in the car. I thought I would be excited and couldn't sleep, but my body couldn't hold it anymore, even if the bumps along the way couldn't stop her from falling asleep all the way.
When I woke up, the sun had sunk in the west.
Ah Zi lifted the curtain with sleepy eyes, and the back of Ah Brown driving the carriage came into view.
"Awake?" Hearing the movement, Ah Brown turned his head and looked at Ah Zi with a smile, "Are you hungry?" Shall we stop for a bite to eat somewhere in front of us with a better view? ”
Ah Zi nodded obediently.
The two sat side by side, sharing the snacks in the palace prepared by the queen.
"Ahh Ah Zi screamed softly, broke off a piece of osmanthus cake and put it in his mouth.
Ah Brown turned to look at her. I saw her eating pastries like a child. Grinning and wiping the residue from the corners of her mouth for her, she put her fingers covered with sweets scraped from Ah Zi's mouth into her mouth and licked them clean.
Ah Zi smiled and grabbed his arm, snuggled up to his ear and said, "I want to learn knife techniques." ”
Ah Brown raised his eyebrows and looked at the little person next to him, and asked softly, "Why do you want to learn that?" ”
Ah Zi moved his head. Changed to a more comfortable position, leaning on Ah Brown's solid arms. Look into the distance. He sighed and said, "Defend yourself." ”
Wanting to learn a martial art is something that Ah Zi has kept in his heart for a long time.
With kung fu, even if it's just some crappy three-legged cat kung fu. It won't be that every time you encounter danger, you can only wait for Ah Brown to save yourself, and you won't be so helpless without Ah Brown's protection. You don't have to watch Hui Niang fall into her arms, watch the master die in order to save herself, and you don't have to watch Ah Zhong fight against a team of people and horses alone, and when he finally loses the enemy, he only has the share of cowardice and escape......
Ah Brown nodded meaningfully, stuffed the steamed bun in his hand into his mouth, then pulled out the oxtail knife on his waist, circled in the air, and handed the handle to Ah Zi.
"Give it a try."
Ah Ziru got the treasure, held the handle of the knife with both hands, and used ten fingers to exert force, thinking that she was firmly fixing the weapon in front of her, but as soon as Ah Zi let go, her hand sank, and she almost dropped the knife to the ground.
"Stand up and slash at me."
Ah Brown instructed calmly, and Ah Zi looked at him with round eyes in shock.
"The sword has no eyes, what should I do if it hurts you?"
The words came out, but I saw Ah Brown raise his eyebrows, and looked at Ah Zi with a smile and didn't speak.
Ah Zi lowered her head and laughed self-deprecatingly-if she could hurt Ah Brown so easily, then Ah Brown's names that shocked the world would not be in vain.
Thinking of this, Ah Zi had no worries, she took a deep breath, stood still in front of Ah Brown, and slowly raised the knife above her head with both hands.
"Just take me as a piece of wood, try to cut it right from the top of my head and split me in half." Ah Brown said plainly, which made Ah Zi sound a terrifying description.
Such words did not play a role in guiding Ah Zi at all, only made her more uneasy, originally only faintly worried in her heart, but now she was so nervous that even the hands holding the handle of the knife trembled a little.
Ah Brown, what a terrible master.
Ah Zi scolded in his heart.
But he was already ready to fly, so he could only slash forward.
Swinging his hands hard, seeing that the blade shining with cold light was getting closer and closer to the top of Ah Brown's head, but he sat there fixedly and looked straight at himself, Ah Zi really couldn't bear it, so he could only close his eyes tightly, bite his lip and push the knife down.
But the moment he stopped, Ah Zi didn't hear the cracking sound that should have been, and only felt that the tip of the knife was silently inserted into something soft.
Could it be Ah Brown's thighs?!
A thought flashed, and Ah Zi was so frightened that he took a breath of cold air, and opened his eyes suddenly, only to see the tip of the oxtail knife that he was still holding tightly in both hands slightly inserted into the soil, but Ah Brown was still sitting motionless on the bluestone half a step away, looking at himself with shocked eyes.
Ah Zi looked at the direction of his knife in confusion, and cast a gaze towards Ah Brown for help: "Why is the direction of the knife and the direction of the knife falling so far apart?" ”
Ah Brown's face was full of helplessness when he heard this, and he said, "This is the question I just wanted to ask you." ”
Ah Zi dragged the oxtail knife back to sit next to Ah Brown with some frustration, and said dejectedly: "Am I stupid?" ”
Ah Brown calmed down and took the knife in Ah Zi's hand: "This knife was originally designed for men, not suitable for women like you to practice, and it is the first time you have come into contact with these weapons, so I am a little embarrassed for you." ”
Ah Zi was convinced of Ah Brown's words of comfort, she cupped her cheeks and pondered for a while, and said, "Maybe it's more appropriate for me to be an archer like Ah Zhong?"
"For example, when the Fir was attacked before, I could clearly see the position of the captain of the pirate ship, but Ah Zhong couldn't, and at that time I was thinking, if I could also draw the bow and solve the captain at once, I would save you a lot of trouble."
The more Ah Zi spoke, the more she felt that this was a good idea, and looked at Ah Brown with antiquation.
Ah Brown also felt that this might be a good breakthrough, and he could make good use of Ah Zi's far more than ordinary eyesight.
But bows and arrows are not his forte, if he wants to learn a bow, he must only be taught by Ah Zhong in the future, thinking of Ah Zhong and Ah Zihe's appearance of a bow, he can't say awkward in his heart. (To be continued.) )
